Definitions
- This invention relates generally to synthetic fluids prepared by oligomerizing linear ⁇ -olefins and more particularly to a synthetic fluid having improved biodegradability which is an oligomer of a mixture of C 12 and C 14 alpha-olefins.
- Alpha-olefin oligomers commonly referred to as polyalphaolefins or PAOs, and their use as hydraulic fluids and lubricants (synlubes) are well known.
- the oligomers are usually prepared from 1-decene for optimum properties, although mixtures of ⁇ -olefins have been used, as described, for example, in U.S. Pat. Nos 3,330,883 and 3,576,898.
- One advantage of the ⁇ -olefin fluids is that they are more biodegradable than mineral oil basestocks of like viscosity.
- a polyalphaolefin fluid which comprises an oligomer prepared from a mixture of C 12 and C 14 olefins, said mixture having a linear, terminal mono-olefin content of at least about 80 weight percent and a C 12 olefin content of from about 40 to about 90 weight percent, said fluid having a kinematic viscosity of from about 5.0 to about 20 mm 2 /s at 100° C. and a biodegradability as determined by the CEC L-33 A93 test, of at least about 50 percent.
- a functional fluid or lubricant composition comprising a polyalphaolefin fluid which comprises: (a) an oligomer prepared from a mixture of C 12 and C 14 olefins, said mixture having a linear, terminal mono-olefin content of at least about 80 weight percent and a C 12 olefin content of from 40 to 90 weight percent, said fluid having a kinematic viscosity of from 5.0 to 20 mm 2 /s at 100° C.
- biodegradability as determined by the CEC L-33 A93 test, of at least about 50 percent
- at least one additive selected from the group consisting of dispersants, antioxidants, anti-wear agents, antifoamers, corrosion inhibitors, detergents, seal-swell agents and viscosity improvers.
- C 12 and C 14 ⁇ -olefin mixtures for forming the oligomer can be prepared by mixing substantially pure 1-dodecene and 1-tetradecene.
- commercially available mixtures such as those obtained from the Ziegler chain growth process, which usually contain up to about 20 weight percent of vinylidene and internal olefins, can also be used.
- the mixtures may also contain up to about 5 weight percent of C 10 and/or C 16+ olefins.
- the proportion of C 14 olefin should be kept at or below about 60 weight percent, such that the mixtures contain from 40 to 90 weight percent C 12 olefin, preferably from about 55 to about 80 weight percent C 12 olefin and, more preferably, from 60 to 75 weight percent C 12 olefin, with the remainder being C 14 olefin and up to about 5 weight percent of higher or lower carbon number olefins.
- the oligomers can be prepared as known in the art, preferably using a Friedel-Crafts catalyst system.
- the preferred Friedel-Crafts catalyst is BF 3 .
- Pure BF 3 is not an effective oligomerization catalyst and the use of a small amount of a polar compound is necessary.
- any of the known promoters for BF 3 can be used such as water, alcohol (e.g. methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, n-hexanol, 2-ethyl hexanol, n-decanol, and n-dodecanol including mixtures thereof), fatty acids (e.g. valeric and capronic), organic esters (e.g. butyl acetate, methyl valerate and ethyl octanoate), ketones (e.g. methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone), ethers (e.g.
- alcohol e.g. methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, n-hexanol, 2-ethyl hex
- dibutyl ether tetrahydrofuran and dioxane
- alkoxylated alcohols e.g. 2-ethoxy-ethanol
- polyhydric alcohols e.g. glycol and glycerol
- inorganic acids e.g. phosphoric acid
- silica and zeolites e.g. silica and zeolites.
- the preferred promoters are water and alcohols containing about 1-8 carbon atoms such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, n-hexanol and n-octanol.
- the more preferred promoters are alcohols containing about 2-5 carbon atoms.
- the most preferred promoter is n-butanol.
- the amount of promoter should be an amount that causes the BF 3 to act as an oligomerization catalyst. This is referred to as a promoter amount.
- a suitable range is 0.01-2.0 weight percent of the ⁇ -olefin, and, preferably, 0.1 to 1.0 percent.
- BF 3 is merely bubbled through a promoter- containing ⁇ -olefin reaction mixture during the oligomerization.
- the process is conducted under BF 3 pressure.
- a useful pressure is from 15 to 1000 kPa, preferably from 40 to 500 kPa and more preferably from 75 to 150 kPa.
- the preferred reaction temperatures are 10 to 60° C. and more preferably 25 to 50° C. Lower temperatures will increase the amount of higher oligomers but at the cost of a slower reaction rate. High temperatures give a fast reaction rate but increased yield of dimer.
- the oligomerization is usually conducted until the monomer content of the reaction mixture drops below about 5 weight percent, more preferably below about 2 weight percent.
- the reaction product which is predominantly (above 50 weight percent) trimer and higher oligomers and, preferably, 30 to 80 weight percent trimer is washed to remove the BF 3 and promoter and the monomer is stripped. If desired the product can be distilled to obtain different viscosity cuts.
- the product fluids can by hydrogenated by conventional methods in order to improve their stability. Supported nickel catalysts are useful. For example, nickel on a Kieselguhr support gives good results. Batch or continuous processes can be used. For example, the catalyst can be added to the liquid and stirred under hydrogen pressure or the liquid may be trickled through a fixed bed of the supported catalyst under hydrogen pressures of 700 to 7,000 kPa at temperatures of at 150 to 300° C.
- Fluids of the invention which have a 100° C. kinematic viscosity of at least about 5 mm 2 /s, and especially from 5.5 to 7.5 mm 2 /s, are, surprisingly significantly more biodegradable than 1-decene fluids of the same viscosity range.
- the fluids of the invention are useful in various functional fluid and lubricant applications and their properties can be enhanced by the use of conventional lubricant additives in total amounts of up to about 25 weight percent, and preferably from 0.1 to 20 weight percent.
- additives include, for example, dispersants, anti-oxidants, anti-wear agents, anti-foam, corrosion inhibitors,. detergents, seal swell agents and viscosity index improvers. These types of additives are well known in the art.
- additives are zinc dialkyl-dithiophosphates, calcium aryl sulfonates, overbased calcium aryl sulfonates, barium phenates, barium oxide-neutralized reaction products of phosphorus pentasulfide and terpenes of high molecular weight olefins, hindered alkyl phenols, methylene-bis-dialkyl phenols, dibutyl tin sulfide, dibutyl hydrogen phosphonate, tri-cresyl-phosphate, high molecular weight alkyl succinimides of ethylene-polyamines such as tetraethylene-polyamine, sulfur-bridged alkyl phenols, sulfurized fatty acid esters and amides, silicones and dialkylesters.
- additives "additive packages,” which are tailored for specific base oils and applications, are commercially available from several sources including Ethyl Corporation. Viscosity Index (VI), XVI), tetra
- over-all biodegradability of the formulations containing the fluids of the invention will depend upon the total functional fluid or lubricant blends including the lubricant additives.
- the fluid can be used as base oils or additive oils and in blends with other oils such as, for example, C 6 -C 10 1-olefin based PAO's, mineral oils, synthetic esters.
- Lubricant formulations of the fluids have been found to have a higher viscosity index and to exhibit a much lower tendency than 1-decene oligomer to form deposits in Panel Coker Tests.
- the base oil should contain at least about 50 weight percent C 12 /C 14 PAO and, preferably, at least about 85 weight percent.
- C 12 /C 14 olefin which contains about 70% C 12 and 30% C 14 by weight, with about 85 mole % being linear ⁇ -olefin, is oligomerized using a BF 3 -n-butanol catalyst at a reaction temperature of about 30° C. (2.7 barg BF 3 pressure, 0.6 weight % of the monomer charge of n-butanol) for about 85 minutes cook time.
- the oligomer yield is about 95%.
- the crude product is washed, filtered and distilled to remove monomer and some dimer.
- the product is then hydrogenated.
- the product contains, by weight, about 15% dimer, 54% trimer and 31% tetramer and higher oligomers.
- Example 1 is repeated except that the reaction temperature is about 45° C. and the cook time is about 75 minutes.
- the crude product is distilled to remove all of the monomer and dimer, and then is hydrogenated.
- the product contains, by weight, about 68% trimer and 32% tetramer and higher oligomers.
- the biodegradability of the 6 mm 2 /s product of Example 1 was compared to that of the DURASYNTM 166 PAO under the conditions of the CEC L33 A93 test.
- the CEC (Coordinating European Council) L33 A93 protocol was developed to determine the persistence of 2-stroke outboard engine oil in aquatic environments. In recent years, results from this test have been applied more broadly. The test is fast becoming a standard for aquatic biodegradability for water insoluble materials. It should be noted that this test is not a test of "ready biodegradability" but “comparative biodegradability.” These terms are tightly defined by regulatory bodies.
- the CEC L 33 A93 test procedure is summarized as follows: Test flasks, together with poisoned flasks, (each in triplicate) containing mineral medium, test oil and inoculum are incubated for 0 to 21 days. Flasks containing calibration materials in the place of the test oil are run in parallel. At the end of the incubation times, the contents of the flasks are subjected to sonic vibration, acidified, and extracted with CCI 4 or R113. The extracts are then analyzed by Quantitative IR Spectroscopy, measuring the maximum absorption of the CH 3 -band at 2930 cm -1 . The biodegradability is expressed as the % difference in residual oil content between the test flasks and the respective poisoned flasks at day 21.
- a 5W40 heavy duty diesel oil (HDDO) was formulated using the C 12 /C 14 PAO of Example 1 and compared to a reference 15W40 mineral oil based HDDO and a 5W40 HDDO formulated using a 6cSt 1-decene based oligomer fluid (Albemarle DURASYNTM 166) for total particulate emissions.
- the comparison was done using a modern European heavy duty, direct injection, 6 cylinder in line 5.96 liter diesel engine turbocharged with a charge-air cooler (max power 177 kW at 2600 rpm, max torque 840 Nm) which meets Euro II European Commission Legislation emission standards (Oct. 1995).
- the comparison was, done using the standard U.S.
- transient test procedure which simulates a combination of freeway and non-freeway driving with programmed acceleration, deceleration, load and no-load conditions.
- the formulated oil compositions are shown in Table IV. Two tests were done with each oil and the results are reported in Table V.
